I didn't expect it to come on a Sunday night in CCHA playoff week 2, but here we are. Important for the program to find some respectability, and going 6-5 in the last 11 is a positive way to contemplate the next 27 weeks.

Re: Tis the MSU-EL Offseason
Given how the season started, ending the campaign 5-5-0 (and with a playoff series win in Fairbanks) is totally fine with me. Granted, I'm not expecting MSU to be a world beater in the B1G next season, but I do feel optimistic again. It was a really strong last five weeks of play.

Re: Tis the MSU-EL Offseason
That's all I've seen, too. GLI and a non-conference series at MTU on Nov. 8 and 9. Apparently, Hollis is offering a bunch of two-for-ones.

Re: Tis the MSU-EL Offseason
I was pulling for you guys. If things worked out right, we could have played in the Final-final for the chance to bring the Mason Cup to the B1G.

Re: Tis the MSU-EL Offseason
Is it October yet? No? Wait, it's still March?! We still have to endure summer?! Geez, this offseason is going to be brutal.
Any word on whether the script alternates will return next season?Michigan State University Spartan Hockey66 - 86 - 0759 - 66 - 67 - 84 - 86 - 87 - 89 - 92 - 99 - 01 - 0759 - 66 - 67 - 82 - 83 - 84 - 85 - 86 - 87 - 88 - 89 - 90 - 92 - 94 - 95 - 96 - 97 - 98 - 99 - 00 - 01 - 02 - 04 - 06 - 07 - 08 - 12

Re: Tis the MSU-EL Offseason
Is it hockey yet? No? Well, darn.
Anyway, to answer my previous question: Per an Anastos tweet, the script alternate sweaters will be back next season.
This news makes me quite happy.Michigan State University Spartan Hockey66 - 86 - 0759 - 66 - 67 - 84 - 86 - 87 - 89 - 92 - 99 - 01 - 0759 - 66 - 67 - 82 - 83 - 84 - 85 - 86 - 87 - 88 - 89 - 90 - 92 - 94 - 95 - 96 - 97 - 98 - 99 - 00 - 01 - 02 - 04 - 06 - 07 - 08 - 12

Re: Tis the MSU-EL Offseason
According to the MSU hockey twitter, UMass-Lowell and BU will be on the schedule next year. They also reported Anastos said it was "important to maintain some relationships with schools in state."
Assuming no trip to Alaska, there's 34 games next year. 20 taken up by conference so 14 non-conference.
We already have the GLI, going to MTU, and now apparently Lowell and BU. Assuming those are two games series and not a pre-season tournament or 1-and-1 with UM, we're down to 6 games for "in-state relationships."
NMU has reportedly said no to any deals, so that leaves FSU, LSSU, and WMU.Go Green! Go White! Go State!

Re: Tis the MSU-EL Offseason
I was wondering when we'd make that return trip to UML.
EDIT: And, apparently, it'll be in 2014-2015. Both UML and BU come to Munn next season.Last edited by aallenpollreisz; 03-27-2013, 04:46 AM.Michigan State University Spartan Hockey66 - 86 - 0759 - 66 - 67 - 84 - 86 - 87 - 89 - 92 - 99 - 01 - 0759 - 66 - 67 - 82 - 83 - 84 - 85 - 86 - 87 - 88 - 89 - 90 - 92 - 94 - 95 - 96 - 97 - 98 - 99 - 00 - 01 - 02 - 04 - 06 - 07 - 08 - 12

Re: Tis the MSU-EL Offseason
Also, IMO, if MSU signed lifetime contracts for home-and-homes with LSSU, WMU, BGSU and Notre Dame, I'd be completely fine with that.Michigan State University Spartan Hockey66 - 86 - 0759 - 66 - 67 - 84 - 86 - 87 - 89 - 92 - 99 - 01 - 0759 - 66 - 67 - 82 - 83 - 84 - 85 - 86 - 87 - 88 - 89 - 90 - 92 - 94 - 95 - 96 - 97 - 98 - 99 - 00 - 01 - 02 - 04 - 06 - 07 - 08 - 12
